This 1973 Chevrolet Corvette is powered by a rebuilt L82 350ci V8 engine backed by a 4-speed manual transmission. Features include new interior parts, new exhaust, tint, air conditioning, power steering, power windows, and a modern Bluetooth-compatible stereo. This red C3 Corvette with body-color T-tops over a brown vinyl interior is available now and comes with an assembly manual, receipts, service history, spare parts, and a clear Texas title in the seller’s name.
The exterior is finished in red and features pop-up quad headlights, body-color T-tops, and window tint. Additional features include a color-keyed front bumper, chrome mirror caps, chrome rear bumpers, and clear heat-resistant windshield film.
A set of 15" x 8" steel Chevrolet Rally wheels with stainless steel center caps and trim rings is wrapped in Road Hugger Radial G/T tires in staggered sizes.
According to the seller, the interior is mostly new. The bucket seats, center console pad, and door panels are upholstered in brown vinyl. Features include brown carpeting with tan rubber floor mats, a tan center console, power windows, air conditioning, power steering, manual brakes, and a Bluetooth-compatible digital stereo. Additional features include a tan dashboard with a tan vinyl top pad and a telescoping tilt steering column topped with a 3-spoke steering wheel. The seller notes a tear in the back of the passenger’s seat.
A 160-mph speedometer, fully functional 7K-rpm tachometer, clock, and gauges for the fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and battery voltage are located ahead of the driver. The odometer reads 58,200, which the seller reports to be true. A new, in-the-box electronic tachometer and replacement interior lights will be included with the sale.

Those are the warning lights. The left one is “fasten seat belts”. The one on the right is “door ajar”.

@MallyDavies – Lovely car but is the engine the standard 210 hp or has it been increased. ...
The motor is 250hp. A lot of 73’s sold in some states (California) had environmental restrictions on the motor that reduced horsepower. This one has no restrictions.
Lovely car but is the engine the standard 210 hp or has it been increased.

@Bugeye101 – How many miles are on the tires, what condition are they in? Also, can you post a picture of the torn seat? ...
The tread is still deep. Not sure exactly how many miles. I've tried to post pictures three times now and it hasn't gone through. I'll try one at a time

Not sure how many miles are on the tires, but the tread is still deep. Here are photos of the tread and both seats
How many miles are on the tires, what condition are they in? Also, can you post a picture of the torn seat?
I was asked about the paint, as some of the pictures show an orange tint for some reason. The paint is the same as the original color, Mille Miglia Red
@Allengastinger – Also forgot to ask---- is the original camshaft in the engine or was it replaced and if so what brand? ...
I went over the service paperwork from the overhaul and couldn’t find anything specific regarding the camshaft being replaced, so I cannot honestly say that it was. I would assume it’s the original
